AudioMetallurgy Zero I.C.'s


Does anyone out there use any of the AudioMetallurgy products, particularly the Zero RCA interconnects? If so, what have you compared in their price range and how do they rate...
Thanks

In my all-MBL system I use AM Zero's throughout and their Golden Reference speaker wire. Sounds fantastic to me. :)

I did experiment with Synergistic Teslas (Acoustic and Precision Reference models) before deciding, but they wouldn't provide anything the AM's already had. The Teslas did sound as great though, but the AM's are vastly cheaper so it was a simple choice.
Ozzy, I did use the Teslas throughout. I had the Reference AC chords (there were no Tesla power chords back then), the Precision Reference interconnects and I switched back and forth between Acoustic and Precision speaker cables.

Then I took all of it out and put AM GA-0 interconnects throughout and the Gold Reference speaker cable, and changed the power chords to DIY chords that my dealer makes + one Black Sand Statement One on the preamp. Overall, the sound was very close to the Teslas, and in some areas it was better. The midrange had slightly more warmth to it, making voices sound very realistic. The Black Sand powerchord gave a wonderful sparkle to the top that wasn't there before too, I found out after some detective work. :)
